Traditional Uses: Traditionally used in Japanese tea ceremonies for centuries, as well as in Zen Buddhist monasteries, as a powdered form of green tea prepared by whisking with hot water to promote meditation, mental clarity, and overall wellness.
Potential Benefits: Rich in the antioxidant EGCG (up to 137 times more than regular green tea), which may support heart health by lowering blood pressure and LDL cholesterol, improve focus and alertness due to the combination of caffeine and L-theanine, and provide anti-inflammatory and metabolic benefits.
Warnings: Contains 38–89 mg of caffeine per cup, which may cause anxiety, insomnia, rapid heartbeat, or high blood pressure in sensitive individuals; excessive consumption (≥800 mg EGCG) may cause liver problems; high doses can interfere with iron absorption; avoid during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
